Strayhorn, Mississippi

[1] Strayhorn is approximately 10 miles west of the county seat of Senatobia.

Strayhorn's first mayor was Frank Bizzell, and F. E. Cotton was the first postmaster at Strayhorn's U.S. Post Office, which was closed in the 1960s when mail delivery was merged with the Senatobia post office.

Even after Strayhorn lost its short-lived incorporated status, the first half of the 20th century saw progress for the small community.

Seven years later, the first electric lights came to Strayhorn, and 1953 saw the construction of a paved highway through the community.
